When washing iscompleted, wipe top and sides ofwasher with a damp
cloth. Turn water faucets off to prevent pressure build-upin the hoses.
As needed, clean the cabinet with mild soap and water. Never use harsh,
gritty or abrasive cleansers. If door or console becomes stained, clean
with diluted chlorine bleach [1/2 cup (120 ml) in 1 quart (.95 L) water].
Rinse several times with clear water.
Remove glue residue from tape or labels with a mixture of warm water and
mild detergent. Or, touch residue with the sticky side of the tape or label.
